>gnl|CDD|99734 cd00609, AAT_like, Aspartate aminotransferase family. This family belongs to pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent aspartate aminotransferase superfamily (fold I). Pyridoxal phosphate combines with an alpha-amino acid to form a compound called a Schiff base or aldimine intermediate, which depending on the reaction, is the substrate in four kinds of reactions (1) transamination (movement of amino groups), (2) racemization (redistribution of enantiomers), (3) decarboxylation (removing COOH groups), and (4) various side-chain reactions depending on the enzyme involved. Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes were previously classified into alpha, beta and gamma classes, based on the chemical characteristics (carbon atom involved) of the reaction they catalyzed. The availability of several structures allowed a comprehensive analysis of the evolutionary classification of PLP dependent enzymes, and it was found that the functional classification did not always agree with the evolutionary history of these enzymes. The major groups in this CD corresponds to Aspartate aminotransferase a, b and c, Tyrosine, Alanine, Aromatic-amino-acid, Glutamine phenylpyruvate, 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase, Histidinol-phosphate, gene products of malY and cobC, Valine-pyruvate aminotransferase and Rhizopine catabolism regulatory protein..
